Procurement Support
Goods, services, and works at the best possible price and quality
Competition is the foundation for good procurement practice. In addition to the economy and efficiency, the public sector requires transparency and accountability for the use of public funds, and this affects the choice of the procurement method and the documentation and procedures that are used. Therefore, IFIs and donors usually require its public sector clients, to obtain goods, works and services through open tendering procedures. Other methods may be appropriate for special circumstances, depending on the nature and value of the goods, works or services to be obtained, the required completion time and other considerations.
